The latest episode of 'Saturday Night Live' took an unexpected turn as cast members initially expressed their shock over Donald Trump's re-election. The skit, which began with a somber tone, quickly evolved into a satirical declaration of unwavering support for Trump.

Introducing a new character, 'Hot, Jacked Trump', the show's cast humorously portrayed a buff version of Trump, with James Austin Johnson delivering a spot-on impersonation. The episode, hosted by comedian Bill Burr, diverged from the show's usual political commentary, opting for a blend of humor and surprise.
